What’s usually included in equipment hire rates?
Equipment hire rates typically include the use of the machine or tool for a set period, such as hourly, daily or weekly. Basic maintenance and safety checks are usually covered, and in some cases, attachments or accessories are included. Fuel, delivery, cleaning and damage cover may be charged separately, so it’s important to check what's itemised in your quote. Always ask if the hire rate includes GST, and clarify pickup or drop-off options before booking to avoid unexpected costs.
Do I need any experience or licences to use hired machinery?
It depends on the equipment. Smaller tools and light landscaping gear often don’t require prior experience, but you should still follow the safety instructions. For larger machines — like excavators, skid steers or compactors — some level of experience or a licence may be required. Even when not legally mandatory, knowing how to operate the equipment safely and efficiently is highly recommended. If in doubt, ask the hire company for guidance or request a quick demo on pickup.
Is short-term equipment hire available for just a day or weekend?
Yes, most hire companies offer flexible rental options, including half-day, full-day and weekend hire. Short-term hire is ideal for quick landscaping jobs, small concreting tasks or DIY projects that don’t justify a longer booking. Some providers offer reduced weekend rates or bundled packages for Friday–Monday use. Be sure to check opening hours for pickup and return — especially on Saturdays — and ask about after-hours return options if needed. Always book in advance to secure popular tools.
